The Community Health and Well Being Team is looking to hire a PRN Medical Assistant for our Mobile Health Clinic that visits rural locations across the Treasure Valley! The mobile health clinic offers healthcare and vaccination services in rural and underserved communities in Western Idaho and Eastern Oregon – migrant farms, homeless shelters, patient homes, etc. In this MA position you would be working with marginalized and underserved populations; many do not speak English as their first language.

As the MA you will be performing rooming, patient intakes, point of care testing, administering vaccinations, and assisting with provider exams, along with diabetes and heart screening. Duties also include follow up with the patients and troubleshooting social determinants to ensure health and well-being. You will also drive the RV after you have been trained in its operation. An ideal candidate is someone who enjoys leadership opportunities and would be comfortable with this type of clinic setting. In addition, being bilingual in Spanish and having a medical interpreter certification is preferred, but not required. Some other things to know about this position are: This is a mobile unit, there can be significant drive time to the clinic location with some set up. There is also a lot of movement of items in and out of the RV/vans so lifting and carrying is required. Some clinics run into the evening or on weekends (with pay differentials). Weather is sometimes a factor, either for driving or at clinic. It can be, and has been, cold/hot at clinics. We do our best to mitigate with equipment, etc. There will be real time documentation in our medical record (Epic) with follow-up work after clinics required – patient results review and notification, provider communication, etc. Performance and competency training of basic clinical skills: vitals, point of care testing, venipuncture, assisting with procedures, ear lavage, etc. Saint Alphonsus Health System is a faith-based ministry and not-for-profit health system serving Idaho, Oregon, and northern Nevada communities.
